Review # 1 was written on 2010-11-23 00:00:00 Edward Sampson I'm gradually losing patience with this series. I've ignored the fact that these kids go to a special school for the endowed even though there is absolutely no assistance given to the kids to learn how to best use their endowments; I've tried to overlook the fact that everyone knows about endowed people and yet no one ever wants to call the police or a doctor because supposedly no one would believe the situation; I've merely gritted my teeth as the children take on the world while most of the adults are too incompetent to help and too breezy about life to care; and I accept drawing out the seemingly needless mystery about Charlie's missing dad---but ever since the queen came back as a horse in the last book, I have been less willing to take a grain of salt with all this. With this installment I feel like the story just keeps getting more ridiculous.
